Martin Hanzal scored two goals but it wasn't enough as Arizona fell 4-3 to the Los Angeles Kings.

Both goals were on the power-play in the first period, helping to chase Peter Budaj from the Kings net. Hanzal filled the stat sheet with six shots a blocked shot and a hit in just over 20 minutes of ice-time. The 29-year-old has five goals and nine points in 17 games. Tobias Rieder scored the other goal.

Christian Dvorak scored the only goal for the Arizona Coyotes as they lost 4-1 Wednesday night to the Vancouver Canucks.

Dvorak’s goal came 58 seconds into the second period and tied the game at one apiece. It did not take long for the Canucks to reestablish dominance, however, and Dvorak would not get any scoring help from his teammates. Dvorak made only one shot on goal Wednesday night, but made the most of it. This was Dvorak’s second goal of the season and his first was sunk after making only two shots again the Predators November 3rd.

The Arizona Coyotes have placed Brad Richardson on I/R with a broken leg.

There's no timetable yet for Richardson's return, but it will likely be a while as he broke both his tibia and fibula. He was having a fantastic season with five goals and nine points through 16 games, easily the best rate of his 10-year career.

Bolland will probably open the season on the long-term injured reserve list after failing his physical. "He’s working towards trying to (play), but again injuries are what they are. He’s been trying to comeback from that injury for the last nine months and he hasn’t gotten to the stage where he can do that to be cleared," said agent Anton Thun. "His goal is to try to continue to play, but at some point in time, it may just be not happening. He may never play again." He's completed two seasons of his five-year, $27.5 million deal.

Max Domi scored the lone goal for Arizona in a 2-1 overtime loss to Calgary on Thursday.

Domi banged home a puck in front of a crowded Flames net to bag his fifth of the season. He snapped a four-game losing streak with the goal. He also added seven penalties and three shots to help fantasy owners. The 21-year-old has been steady this year with five goals and 11 assists in 26 games.

Perlini was recalled by the Coyotes Sunday and deservedly so as he had nine goals and 12 points. The 20-year-old had 25 goals and 45 points in 57 OHL games last season in an off-year offensively, but he has turned things around this season in his first as a professional.

Anthony Duclair took Coyotes coach Dave Tippett's desire to give him a "reset" to heart.

Tippett made Duclair a healthy scratch on Monday so that there would be some separation from the sophomore's rough start to the 2016-17 campaign and the rest of the season. Duclair was back in the lineup on Tuesday. "I’m starting from scratch now on," he said. "Obviously, it’s not ideal for me to sit down in the stands and I don’t want to do that again. So I gotta make sure that, like 'Tip' said, just putting the reset button on and just work hard every day." He has just one goal and four points in 24 contests this season.

Radim Vrbata scored his eighth goal of the season Saturday night, but it was not enough as the Arizona Coyotes lost a 3-2 contest to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

This puts Vrbata on a five-game streak during which he has earned at least one point per night. Unfortunately, he and the Coyotes are also riding a three-game losing streak after dropping to the Sharks and Kings. Vrbata’s 17 points leads the Coyotes and makes him fantasy relevant, however.

Shane Doan is now the all-time Coyotes leader in assists, picking up his 554 in a 2-1 overtime loss to Calgary on Thursday.

Doan picked up the helper on Max Domi's goal which was the only one for the Coyotes on this night. The Coyotes captain moved past Thomas Steen for the most in Coyotes/Jets franchise history. He's not a fantasy option at this point in his career but is a good story and a leader in the young Arizona locker room.

According to Jim Matheson, the Arizona Coyotes have made it known that pending-UFA Michael Stone can be had in a trade.

The 26-year-old defender has posted three helpers in seven games with 13 blocks and 15 hits. Stone is coming off a career year last year when he posted 36 points in 75 games, and has proven he can handle heavy workloads with three consecutive seasons of averaging over 20 minutes per night.

Connor Murphy suffered an undisclosed injury in the second period Saturday and did not return.

The Coyotes did not want to take any chances since it was only an exhibition game. "It was just a precautionary situation," associate coach Jim Playfair said. "He went in the boards there, and we just decided just for where we are in camp and what we got coming ahead it was just a better decision to keep him out for the rest of the night. But he’s fine." Murphy had six goals and 17 points last season. Look for an improvement to 25 this season.

Connauton started the campaign on the injured non-roster list. "He’s kind of an all-around player," Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said of Connauton. "He can play both sides of special teams. Just kind of a real steady guy back there, plays with some bite and gives us some quality minutes." Zbynek Michalek was sent to the minors to free up a roster spot.

Mike Smith made 33 saves on 35 shots in a 2-1 OT lost to Calgary on Thursday.

Nice bounce back for the Smith after an ugly loss against Chicago. He's been up and down of late and very hard to predict which should be understandable on a rebuilding Arizona team. He brings a 4-1-4 record to go with a 2.70 GAA and .926 save percentage in 12 appearances.
